Ball sort fans who want quick levels and big chain reactions

Candy Cannon Sort takes the ball sort puzzle and hands you a cannon. Instead of moving balls from tube to tube, you fling glossy candy straight into glass tubes, and every tube you complete erupts in rainbow confetti. It is free on Google Play, made by Loyalty Gaming, the studio behind Playout’s own games, and it has no in-app purchases. If you want to earn money playing a sorting game, open it through Playout: every level you clear adds coins to your balance.

How Candy Cannon Sort plays

A cannon sits below a row of glass tubes, loaded with a candy ball. Drag back and let go to fling it, or simply tap the tube you want. Put four balls of one color in a tube and it shouts SWEET, erupts and empties. Clear every color and the level is won; run out of room in the tubes and the level is over.

Two details turn this into more than aiming. First, the chute: you can see the next balls coming, so you always know what you’ll be firing a few shots from now. Second, the eruptions. When a tube blows, it shakes the wrong-colored balls off the tubes next to it. Those balls fly home into a matching tube, or back into your cannon. One good shot can complete a tube, knock loose a ball that completes the next one, and roll on into GREAT, AMAZING and SUGAR RUSH combos.

Most levels take under a minute, and the next one starts right away. There are more than 1,000 of them across five candy worlds: Lollipop Lane, Gumdrop Grove, Caramel Canyon, Bubblegum Bay and Minty Peaks. New twists arrive as you go, such as purple Mystery Candy that only shows its color when it reaches the top, rainbow Jawbreakers, Tricky levels and Sweet Shot bonus levels. Undo, Hammer and Shuffle are there for tight spots.

  2. Open Candy Cannon Sort on the Playout shelf and install it from there. Playout confirms the install, usually within a few minutes, and from then on your levels are linked to your account.

Tips to earn more in Candy Cannon Sort

  • Aim for the eruption next door. Fill a tube that sits beside tubes holding stray balls. The blast sends those strays home, so one shot does the work of several.
  • Keep one tube nearly empty. A spare tube is your safety net when the chute hands you a color that has nowhere to go.
  • Save boosters for the tricky levels. Undo, Hammer and Shuffle shine on Tricky levels and Mystery Candy boards, where one surprise color can block a tube.
  • Do your daily 5 here. Finishing 5 levels in any game each day keeps your daily streak going, and every streak day permanently raises your coin boost. With levels this short, that takes a few minutes.
  • Rotate games for the Live Event. The weekly Live Event gives the first collectible on each game for fewer levels than the next one on the same game. Pair Candy Cannon Sort with another color sort like Hexa Pop to fill the board faster.

Who will like Candy Cannon Sort

Candy Cannon Sort is for anyone who enjoys ball sort and water sort puzzles but wants a little more action: aiming, flinging and watching a chain go off. It plays with one finger, works offline, and its bright toy look makes it an easy game to come back to every day.

If you like sorting but prefer a slower board with no aiming at all, Block Bus! lets you plan every move without a clock.

Questions people ask

Is Candy Cannon Sort free?
Yes. Candy Cannon Sort is free on Google Play, has no in-app purchases, and earning with it through Playout is free too.
Does Candy Cannon Sort pay real money?
The game itself is a regular free puzzle. Played through Playout, every level you clear earns coins, and Playout turns those coins into real money you can cash out as PayPal cash or a gift card.
How is it different from a normal ball sort game?
You don’t drag balls from tube to tube. You fire them from a cannon into the tubes, and every full tube erupts and shakes the wrong balls off its neighbors, which sets up chain reactions.
Are the coins in Candy Cannon Sort the same as Playout coins?
No. The coins you win inside the game, including the triple coins on Sweet Shot levels, stay in the game. Your Playout coins come from cleared levels and show up in the Playout app.
Can I play Candy Cannon Sort offline?
Yes. The puzzles play without Wi-Fi, and one finger is all you need, so it suits a commute or a flight.
